Despite Mother Nature’s bad sense of humor, I was still able to salvage 2 of the 3 days this weekend! Friday’s pike opener saw a half day morning with Lusis & Dunets from Europe. Water temps were an average 44 to 45 degrees and really dirty. They managed to pick up a couple of fish in the few hours but the conditions weren’t the greatest! I was glad to get off by noon as the weather turned really bad!
Saturday was a complete cancellation as the hurricane winds during the night had us throwing in the towel before we ever began! I hope this start to the year isn’t an indication of what’s to come!
Sunday I took a road trip west and hooked up with a buddy for some great walleye action. The season opener had many others out as well but we didn’t see too many bent rods. We however landed many of these golden beauties and released almost all. A few smaller ones were harvested by Mark for one of his neighbors. On the water before 6 and off by 1 o’clock saw the 7 hours fly by! Although the water temps weren’t any better here, the deep fishing had us boating some real beauties!
Our walleye opener locally, begins this Friday and hopefully Mother Nature won’t be as cruel. We really need the daytime temps to warm up the water, getting these fish on the move. I will be out more after these two species are available for clients to catch.
Plenty of available dates in the coming weeks if anyone is interested. High number days will soon become the norm and I can’t wait! Tight Lines!!
